What the whole procedure costs
The rate above is the physician’s fee on its own. The facility bills separately, and for most procedures the facility is the larger half of the bill. These are 2026 national Medicare amounts.
Choosing a surgery centre over a hospital saves about $50 on the Medicare allowed amount for ultrasound pelvis. Ask whether your procedure can be done at an ambulatory surgery centre.
Medicare may pay the facility separately for this code or package it into another service on the same day, so treat the facility share as an upper bound. Medicare allowed amounts are not what an uninsured patient is charged, and not a quote. Private plans typically allow more.

What these numbers are
Every figure on this page is a 2026 Medicare allowed amount: the physician line comes from the Physician Fee Schedule adjusted by geographic practice-cost indices, and the facility totals come from the CMS hospital outpatient (OPPS) and ambulatory surgery centre rates. None of them is a hospital chargemaster price, your insurer's contracted rate, or a quote. Anesthesia, pathology, imaging reads and follow-up care are billed under their own codes when they apply, and an inpatient stay is paid a different way again.
National vs Mississippi
Where Mississippi ranks for this CPT
Ultrasound Pelvis and how Mississippi is priced
Mississippi operates as one statewide payment locality, and its geographic indices are among the very lowest in the fee schedule, so Medicare-approved amounts here are close to the national floor. Jackson, the Gulf Coast, and the Delta all share identical adjustments. In a state where practice costs and wages run well below national averages, the low locality factors track the underlying economics. The statewide figures on this site therefore apply almost unchanged wherever in Mississippi you are treated.
Jackson is home to the state's academic medical center and functions as the referral point of last resort for much of Mississippi, while the Gulf Coast and cities like Tupelo, Hattiesburg, and Meridian anchor regional care. The Delta faces some of the most serious rural access challenges in the nation, with hospital closures and long distances compounding high rates of chronic illness. Border residents often use Memphis, Mobile, or New Orleans providers.
This procedure: A complete pelvic ultrasound scans the bladder, uterus, and ovaries through the lower abdomen using a probe on the skin, requiring a full bladder to push bowel out of the way and create a clear acoustic window. It evaluates pelvic pain, fibroids, and masses, and in males or by protocol it examines the bladder and surrounding structures. The exam takes 15 to 30 minutes; the full-bladder requirement is most patients' only complaint.
What Is Ultrasound Pelvis?
A complete pelvic ultrasound scans the bladder, uterus, and ovaries through the lower abdomen using a probe on the skin, requiring a full bladder to push bowel out of the way and create a clear acoustic window. It evaluates pelvic pain, fibroids, and masses, and in males or by protocol it examines the bladder and surrounding structures. The exam takes 15 to 30 minutes; the full-bladder requirement is most patients' only complaint.
What Affects the Cost
- –It is commonly paired with a transvaginal study (76830) in one appointment, producing two billed exams.
- –Hospital imaging departments price this study well above independent centers and office-based machines.
- –An inadequately filled bladder can force rebooking, effectively costing a second visit.
- –A limited pelvic ultrasound is a cheaper code when only one structure needs a follow-up look.
- –Separate professional reading fees apply where radiologists interpret off-site.
Questions to Ask Before Booking
- 1.Is a complete study needed, or is this a follow-up that qualifies for the cheaper limited code?
- 2.Will a transvaginal exam likely be added during the visit, and what would both together cost?
- 3.What are the bladder-filling instructions so I am not rebooked?
- 4.What is the price difference between your office, an imaging center, and the hospital?
- 5.What diagnosis is on the order to support coverage?

Ultrasound Pelvis in Mississippi: questions
Mississippi is a single Medicare locality for this fee schedule. The 2026 physician rate for CPT 76856 is $93.50 in an office and $93.50 in a hospital, statewide. A ZIP lookup still confirms the locality mapping.
Not on the physician fee schedule. Mississippi uses one locality, so the Medicare physician rate is the same from one end of the state to the other. What still changes is site of service (office vs hospital) and any facility fee the hospital bills on its own claim.
After the Part B deductible, coinsurance is usually 20% of the allowed amount: about $19 for the office physician line or $19 for the hospital physician line in Mississippi. Medigap may cover that 20%. This is not the hospital facility fee.
No. $93.50 is only the physician's share. Adding Medicare's facility payment brings the total to about $212 in a hospital outpatient department, or about $162 at an ambulatory surgery centre. Anesthesia, pathology and other codes billed the same day are extra. Mississippi ranks #2 of 51 states on the physician line (11% below the national office rate of $105.21).
